Tyreek Hill's wish to play in Kansas City in 2023 will be a dream deferred. The NFL made sure of that when it scheduled the Dolphins' road game against the Chiefs in Germany.
Pack your bags, we’re going to Germany!

"Chiefs Kingdom, when the Miami Dolphins come to Arrowhead Stadium this year, guess what we gonna do? I'm gonna be y'all worst enemy that day," Hill said last month during an appearance on Sports Radio 810 WHB.
Former teammate L'Jarius Sneed was on the NFL Network and discussed Hill's comments prior to the game being announced for Germany, via Pro Football Talk.
"Tyreek's been talking a lot of trash. He's been talking a lot about coming back to Arrowhead. We'll show him when he gets here," Sneed said.
It seemed like a slam dunk. Instead, the NFL turned into Joel Embiid trailing a fast break by dashing Hill's wish.
This was the clear sequence of the game -- and not just for the unreal block.

Embiid immediately gets back after a sloppy turnover, makes the rejection, picks himself up off the floor, immediately posts up a mismatch and draws a foul. That's big-time stuff. pic.twitter.com/wJPJn2EsW5
But cheer up, Tyreek. All is not lost. If the Dolphins play their cards right, they'll travel to Arrowhead for the Kansas City Invitational (aka the AFC Championship Game) in late January.
